It's not been adopted as law, was proposed by a far-right group, has little support in Moldova and many say aiding Moldova's EU accession is probably the smarter move.
Vlad is truly the EU employee of the decade, pushing all those countries into the Union or even NATO
Honestly that is a huge thing!
Transnistria unites with Moldova; Moldova unites with Romania; Moldova and Transnistria automatically become member states, as it were, of the European Union?
Is this a trick to enter EU without fulfilling requirements?
I'm sure, if it happens, there will be a lot for the EU to hash out.
East Germany was sorted out fairly painlessly.
Ohohoho, don't say that to an Eastern German.
Depends on your definition of sorted out. The differences are obvious even now, 35 years later.
I meant on the EU level. I don't remember changing treaties, voting problems, vetoes...
Because the EU didn't exist back then? Or am I missing something?
I'm sorry, you're absolutely right. There was in no way or shape an organization of countries in Europe back then. There was the European Economic Community, but that's not related with the EU at all, totally different countries.
I should have never used the term EU referring to a group of European countries in the 21st century that had absolutely nothing to do with the countries of the EEC.
Thank you for correcting me.
Ukraine joins Moldova
Fuck it, let's just all join into an Eastern European Union. The national currency will be borschtmarks.
Romania has the NATO resources to sort Transistria out in an afternoon
Bombing your own country is never a good look.
Our air force can't even get permission to shoot down Russian drones hitting our villages. You think those same politicians will greenlight a ground invasion of Transnistria?
Well… politicians… anything can happen.
